I don't care that I already have the magazine, this makes me want the Kindle more than before! I just wish it was in color. I don't want to look at black and white illustrations and images when reading magazines/books.

Btw, for people who don't know(or didn't bother to read the article), it's available to read anywhere, kindle or no kindle, since you can download a Kindle-programme onto your computer and read it there.

I think I recall reading a e-book in black and white on my laptop after buying from amazon. I think it was simply made that way, since the Kindle wouldn't be able to use color anyway. But don't take my word for it.

I'm going to ignore the tone, which I read as rude(sorry if you didn't intend it) and simply be thankful for the information about the color Kindle, and hope it's more than rumour.

What? I'm not sure where the rude came from --- the only conceivable thing I can think is that you misread the "or, hey" as rude instead of excited to share gadget info. Please rest assured that no rudeness was intended.

I do wonder if they'll call it a Kindle or come up with a new name. I suspect it'll be a heavily modified Android OS, sort of like BN did with the nook, but as a full on tablet and not just an e-reader. Amazon does have their own Android app store and would be the only Android tablet with a fully integrated ecosystem.

P.S. - some eBooks have color pics and some BW, so what you see is in some cases dependent upon the device you view from.
